Looking to do something different in late August?
The Morris Car Club of SA, in conjunction with the Morris Register of SA have extended and open invitation to all car owners of Morris and Morris related vehicles to join their display on the Corner Blight St & Torrens Rd Ridleyton, 25 August 2024 (the day after our Pea and Pie Night!).
What’s a Morris related car you might ask? Its anything produced by what was once known as the Nuffield Corporation. In other words, Morris, Wolseley, Riley, MG, Morris Commercial, SU, Nuffield Universal (at tractor no less). The Nuffield group even designed and produced tanks and armoured cars for the British Army and licence built V12 engines, but I don’t expect to see any of these on display!
Even if you don’t own a ‘Nuffield’ car, this is always a great display with lots to look at and owners to talk to!
An interesting conundrum to consider is that all Sprites and Midgets were produced at MG’s Abingdon factory, including the CKD kits shipped to Australia for assembly. Does that make a Sprite a Nuffield car by association? I’ll leave that for you to ponder……
